Blinder Road 600 Front Bike Light
Lumens are a measure of the total amount of visible light from a light source. The higher the lumen rating the “brighter” the light will appear. Lux is a similar method to measure light across a surface area that is often used in European markets.
Combining lightweight design, carefully considered beam angles, powerful light output and a unique mounting system – The Blinder Road 600 Front Bike Light is one of Knog’s most powerfully perfect road lights ever.

The light output on this little unit is amazing. One button for on/off and also light patterns (narrow, wide, full, oscillating) and button two for intensity control (3 levels for narrow, wide & full but oscillating only has 2 level). Atheistic pleasing in form, very compact and very solid to feel with the silicon securing mount to the aluminum housing construction as passive cooling and the appearance of the flush clear lenses hiding the narrow/wide beam LEDs. Build in flip out USB-A for charging is ingenious. Once mounted it stays in its position under bumpy rides. I've primarily been using it during early dawn and daytime visibility but I can see during dawn the brightness of the most lowest setting in oscillating mode are vehicle light level brightness (as observed from light reflection against road signage as compare to vehicle headlight). I chose this over the Blinder 400 due to the usage time it has over it during oscillation mode (daytime light) which mean less time charging (it charges quite fast) between use (on bike versus plugged into my USB on computer). Love to see Knog transform this into a light head only [I like the overall housing design] with a securable power cabling [maybe twist lock coax heads] and outboard the battery so this could replace use cases where hub dynamo and compatible lighthead may make more sense for extended riding duration (i.e. randonneuring).
The majority of my rides are very early, before sunrise. The Blinder 600 ( along with my Mid Cobbler rear light ) give me plenty of visibility and safety.
Solved issue without being complicated. Thanks.
Blinder Road 600 Front Bike Light
I like this light. The beam pattern is very diffuse so there is not one bright area surrounded by darkness. Instead there is a broad swath of very even light. It is very effective. The handlebar attachment works well and is a big improvement over other lights that use similar silicone straps. The addition of the small hasp on the strap makes all the difference. The different modes work well. I have a long commute in complete darkness in the morning and like to change the light setting depending on the ambient lighting to conserve battery. That is where the one shortcoming of this light comes in to play. The two buttons to control output and mode are relatively small, not raised very much, and are located in a small concave area between the bar and the light and are very difficult for me to access with winter riding gloves on. It doesn't help that they are black like the rest of the light either. I have had to stop and remove a glove to change settings at times. It may be something that improves with more experience with the light, but for now, in the middle of winter, it is a frustration. Otherwise the light is brilliant and I am certainly willing to live with fiddly buttons for it.
